IE IRODOV , A TRIBUTE TO A RUSSIAN PROFESSOR- CAPT AJIT VADAKAYIL

When my elder son was preparing for various entrance exams while doing his 12th standard, the books authored by IE. Irodov took pride of place on his desk.

Today I punched in IE Irodov and found that not even a photograph of this brilliant Russian exists on the Internet.

Wikipedia has ignored him. Probably because he is a Russian Commy?

IE Irodov would have been worshipped by Wikipedia if he was a American Jew.

So just to check out the standards , I punched into Google the name of a bimbette Anushka Sharma--whose only claim to beauty is a fair skin.

Yes indeed! Wikipedia has written a good account of this chudiyal lookin' and behavin' woman.

Above : The THIN LIPPED beauty ( you can grate a coconut on her upper lip -GRATE-GRATE -- shows how much we value blue veins on legs and pale white complexion.BELOW: EVER HEARD OF PLASTIC ?

So what is beauty?

Wikipedia says-

QUOTE:-- “Beauty is a characteristic of a person, animal, place, object, or idea that provides a perceptual experience of pleasure, meaning, or satisfaction.The experience of ‘beauty’ often involves the interpretation of some entity as being in balance and harmony with nature, which may lead to feelings of attraction and emotional well-being. Because this is a subjective experience, it is often said that ‘beauty is in the eye of the beholder.. A subject of beauty is anything that resonates with personal meaning” UNQUOTE

There are very few Physicists who can come near this Russian's stature in the field of Physics.

Ask any student in India who has sat for IIT entrance exams, what they think of IE Irodov.

Since 2006- they have reduced the "thinking capability" test in IIT of 15 minute problem solving which require IE Irodov type OUT OF THE BOX thinking , and has gone more towards " clear concepts " of short time 4 minute objective type question.

My elder son used to say " It may take a couple of hours to solve a tough IE Irodov numerical problem--and it gives you great joy when you finally crack it. You need a good grasp of N.Piskunov's Calculus "

IE Irodov's numerical problems in Physics are the most complex and trickiest of its type-- much harder than Resnick and Halliday --for he combines multiple concepts of Physics..

People may ask me " Captain, why waste your time on Irodov?"

I will tell them " There are mice and men on the Internet-- mostly the former category on Wikipedia. Irodov belongs to the latter category--

-- My blog site exists to bury some propped up mice and exhume some real buried men !"

Igor Yevgenyevich
Irodov (Russian: Игорь Евгеньевич Иродов; 16 November 1923 in Murom - 22
October 2002) , whose books are the prescribed practice material for
national and International Physics Olympiads.

Igor Irodov was born in
Murom, Vladimir Oblast, RSFSR. In 1931 his family moved to Moscow. Igor Irodov
served in the Soviet Army during the World War II between 16 October 1941 and
23 November 1945. In 1946 he was admitted to Moscow Engineering Physics
Institute. Igor Irodov received his Kandidat of Physical and Mathematical
Sciences degree from Moscow Engineering Physics Institute in 1954.

Igor Irodov was a faculty member of the Moscow Engineering
Physics Institute since that time until his death. Since 1977 he was a
Professor of the "General Physics" chair. He spent 27 years of his
life creating a full course of General Physics.

I have been teaching students for IITJEE and have reffered this books to so many. The same kind of surprise came to me when I also tried to know about him. My Guruji published the first solution to I.E.Irodov and sent to him and he(IRODOV) sent back a letter of appreciation to my GURUJI. I have seen Mr.I.E.Irodov photograph with his family. He has lived somewhat miserable life. He never had Royalty for his book through his entire life. I really felt bad as student and have dedicated my life in popularizing his book through my classroom teaching.

what living a miserable life ?A man of real genius like him deserves a very good life. I feel the beauty of his mind while solving this book. I really want to know about him a lot. A Great Man. A Great Author. Publisher of a Great Book.

Sir, Can you do me a favor. I don't have the last book of physics by I.E.Irodov, Problems in atomic and nuclear physics. If you have any source from where I can get it kindly let me know. I am physics enthusiast. I have very good collection of books after seeing you blog i felt incomplete because I don't have it.my email id is : chandan_jamia@yahoo.co.in

Igor Yevgenyevich Irodov (Russian: Игорь Евгеньевич Иродов; 16 November 1923 in Murom - 22 October 2002)[1] is a Russian physicist known for his highly respected book Problems in General Physics. His books are the prescribed practice material for national and International Physics Olympiads in several countries.Igor Irodov was born in Murom, Vladimir Oblast, RSFSR. In 1931 his family moved to Moscow. Igor Irodov served in the Soviet Army during the World War II between 16 October 1941 and 23 November 1945. In 1946 he was admitted to Moscow Engineering Physics Institute. Igor Irodov received his Kandidat of Physical and Mathematical Sciences degree from Moscow Engineering Physics Institute in 1954. His advisor was Lev Artsimovich. Igor Irodov was a faculty member of the Moscow Engineering Physics Institute since that time until his death. Since 1977 he was a Professor of the "General Physics" chair. He spent 27 years of his life creating a full course of General Physics.

Igor Irodov was born in Murom, Vladimir region in the family servants. In 1931, the Herod family moved to Moscow.

June 18, 1941 (the eve of World War II) IE Irodov graduated from secondary school № 147 of the Leningrad district of Moscow.

October 16, 1941 IE Herod was drafted into the Red Army. He fought on the southern and southwestern areas in the 1st and 4th Ukrainian Fronts. At the front of IE Herod was the shooter, a draftsman, cartographer. He fought for the liberation of Ukraine, Poland, Czechoslovakia, and graduated from the war in Prague. During the war, IE Herod was awarded the Order of Patriotic War II degree (1945), Red Star (1944), and the medals "For Courage" (1943), "For Military Merit" (1944), "For Victory over Germany" (1946). November 23, 1945 IE Herod was demobilized from the ranks of the Red Army for health reasons and returned to Moscow.

In February 1946, IE Irodov entered the Moscow Institute of Mechanical Engineering at the Faculty of Physics. In November 1950 IE Irodov graduated from MMI as an engineer-physicist in the design and operation of physical devices and systems. Issuing Department of IE Herod was the Department of Metals (Head of GS Zhdanov).

From March 1951 to March 1954 IE Herod was a graduate student MMI / MEPI. Scientific director of IE Herod was Academician LA Artsimovich. Thesis for the degree of Candidate of Physico-Mathematical Sciences was held May 7, 1956. Thesis "Study focusing and dispersive properties of some variants of magnetic fields." Diploma of Candidate of Physical and Mathematical Sciences IMF number 001,249 was issued to IE Herod December 1, 1956.

March 22, 1954 IE Herod was hired by the department of physics at the Moscow Engineering Physics Institute, led by IV Obreimov, as assistant. From October 1957 IE Irodov worked at the Department of Physics, has led IV Saveliev, a senior lecturer from June 1958 - as a lecturer. February 13, 1960 IE Herod was approved in the academic rank of assistant professor in the department of general physics. Certificate of Associate Professor IBC number 000373 was issued by IE Herod March 21, 1960. On March 29, 1976 IE Irodov worked at the Department of General Physics as a professor. November 25, 1977 he was confirmed in the academic rank of professor in the department of general physics.

His first printed textbook IE Irodov prepared and published in the Moscow Engineering Physics Institute in 1957. It was a collection of problems in atomic physics. The book was immediately positively marked by experts, and following its publication has been carried out, "Ato" in 1959. Following the all-union recognition in this book was followed by her international recognition. The book was published in Poland, Romania, United States. After substantial completion of the book, is primarily to expand its theme, the book became known as the collection of problems in atomic and nuclear physics. It is symbolic that the last book published in vivo IE Herod was the 8th edition of the book in 2002, published under the title "Atomic and nuclear physics. A collection of problems. "

IV Saveliev attracted IE Herod (with teachers of the Department of General Physics, Moscow Engineering Physics Institute and the OI NN Vzorov suede) to write the "Collection of problems in general physics." The first edition of this book was done in 1968 by publishing house "Science".

In 1979 the publishing house "Science" has released his own collection of problems in General Physics IE Herod, entitled "Problems in General Physics."

The aim of the life of IE Herod was to write their own full course of general physics. On the implementation of this goal by IE Irodov spent 27 years of his life.

This blog reminded me of the days when I used to prepare for Engg entrance tests (nearly 8 years ago), problems in general physics by Irodov used to be the benchmark of knowledge of topics like Mechanics and Fluid dynamics. This is one book which has been used by hundreds of thousands of Indian students in past 30 years specially the engg aspirants. A lot of them have managed to get into IITs and hold positions of repute today.

HC Verma's Concepts of Physics has borrowed a lot of problems from Irodov's classic book. A number of solutions have come up with time to help students with the problems. What makes the Irodov's problems unique is beautiful use of applied calculus which gives a practical approach to the problems. Solving every single of Irodov's problems is a bliss for a Physics enthisiast! I am sure you'd concur if you have experienced it yourself.

I hit this blog trying to learn more about the author who seems to have died in 2002. It is unfortunate that wikipedia or any other website does not have a substantial account of Irodov.

I still possess three copies of Problems in General Physics, two of which are original hardbound printed in Russia editions. They are more of collectibles for me now as my daily work does not involve Physics. However, I still visit them at times and glance through the pages. The feeling of nostalgia sweeps through my mind reminding me of those countless hours well invested in solving these problems spent years back!

Pls enlightened us all through simple physics about these new developments in science and technology. Take your time and write full post on each topic. I rarely find any blog interesting but your's differentiates itself. Moreover I like the detail you put in explaining things.

Just a suggestion: Wikipedia is created/ edited by common men like us. Given the amount of information you have collated, you can actually edit and contribute to that page as well Captain as long as you have credible sources for the information.

Nobody and written with so much clarity then I.E Irodov. To appreciate fully we must see his book "The fundamental laws of mechanics" . I have never such a clear exposition of mechanics. I have read almost all good books on elementary physics but nobody is anywhere close to him except Lev Landau.

COMPUTER SCIENCE STUDENTS OF PREMIUM INDIAN COLLEGES MUST HAVE STRONG MATH BASE

AAA ) When my elder son was in cornell that had a coding test --time honoured-- thousands of the best brained students on this planet took several pages to do the code

when my son did it in 4 lines-- the TA ( a brainy white guy ) just gave zero. my son tried explaining--no use .

then my son went to the old professor and explained how -- and the professor fell of his chair. and then he told the TA--next time my son write a code , do not evaluate it--bring it to me direct

BBB ) then he applied to the three best majors. he went to another town with more than 20 cornell masters students ( whites/ chinese / koreans ) . 5 coding tests he did in 55 minutes. he went shopping and then he found he has forgotten his sentimental pen given as a present . he reached the exam hall after 5 hours and all the rest were still there . the company grabbed him-- he works for this comapny today

CCC ) the other giant company-- for the coding test he did a code again in 4 lines -- the director of this company did not understand-- mu son used diagrams and arrays and made him understand. a mathematical brain has the capability to bypass the chaff. this company who allows pets into the office still wants him-- they keep calling

DDD ) the next giant company ( thrird one ) he again did the code in 4 short lines --and the examiner said nobody has ever done that. they have used this coing test on hundreds of the best brains of the planet

LIKE PHYSICAL WARM UP BEFORE AN ATHLETIC EVENT FOR THE MUSCLES --THE BRAIN REQUIRES A WARM UP TOO. REMEMBER THIS TIP ! IT IS NOT RIGHT TO GET UP FROM SLEEP AND GO FOR A CODING TEST.

OUR IIT BTECHS ARE PATHETIC IN CODING . LET IITs KNOW THIS

INDIAN IITs ARE NO LONGER THE BEST. MY SON SAYS NORMAL INDIAN COLLEGE STUDENTS ARE BETTER THAT IIT COMPUTER SCIENCE PRODUCTS ( KOTA SHIT ).

WE NEED TO REVAMP OUR IIT ENTRANCE EXAMS

PARADOX: MY ELDER SON DROOLS WHEN HE SEES A TOUGH MATH PROBLEM. MY YOUNGER SON HATES THE SIGHT OF MATH BOOKS.

Yesterday one of my followers asked me to crack the CICADA 3301 puzzle.

This is touted by the white man ( with shallow brain ) as the last frontier for human intelligence the ultimate EPIPHAMY moment.

MY LEFT BALL.

This is puerile cerebral shit puzzle walking backwards on a 2D plane from destination to origin—cloaked as an intelligence maze.

I can produce a more intelligent puzzle thinking in 3D from between the destination and the origin.

I have been through western standards of human intelligence . You can get solved MENSA puzzles in science libraries or even on the internet. This is meant for CHOOTS.

No white man can ever come to 1/ one millionth of an ancient Indian Maharishis FRACTAL intellect.

Let me go to UNSUNG Srinivasan Ramanujan’s intellect

Prof Hardy met him as soon as his London airport taxi stopped and he just stepped out. Hardy to break conversation ( like the quintessential weather ) remarked. That number of the taxi’s number plate seems to be a dull number.

Ramanujan walked to the front of the taxi , saw that the number was 1729 and remarked instantaneously—“In fact it is a very interesting number –it is the product of three prime numbers 7, 13 and 19” and then he proceeded to give various other interpretations like—“It’s the smallest number expressible as the sum of two cubes in two different ways.”

This is now a Wikipedia post which is bullshit.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1729_(number)

THE WHITE BASTARDS TRIED TO BURY RAMANUJANs INTELLECT AND GAVE EVERYTHING EXCEPT RAMANUJANs FIRST INTERPRETATION OF PRIME NUMBERS .

AND THEN THEY ESTABLISHED THAT RAMANUJAN WAS DYING –HE WAS NOT KILLED.

Only the highest quality human brain like Nikola Tesla or Ramanujan can ever dabble with PRIME NUMBERS.

Such geniuses are used in modern cryptography .

A Prime Number can be divided evenly only by 1, or itself. And it must be a whole number greater than 1. The first few prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, and 29.

What Ramanujan told Hardy about 1729 has been stolen and patented by other white Jews.

When my elder son applied for a job in the world’s wealthiest IT company after Cornell –he was asked to do a coding test in 45 minutes. He did it in a single line in 23 seconds .

It took my son a few minutes to draw a diagram and explain his code to the befuddled examiner . The director of the company told my son—thousands of candidates from all around the planet took 45 minutes in the past , and that his short and sweet code in JAVA can never be surpassed .

YOU DO NOT JUDGE THE INTELLIGENCE OF A MAN EVEN BY SUCH A FANTASTIC CODE.

YOU JUDGE IT BY ORDINARY EVENTS IN YOUR ORDINARY LIFE

All sailors know about RAT GUARDS .

ONCE MY 8 YEAR OLD ELDER SON ASKED ME—“DADDY WHY ARE SAILORS SO STUPID ?”

The incident is belowhttp://ajitvadakayil.blogspot.in/2011/01/snow-shovelling-and-backache-capt-ajit.html

A western shovel can do the job on soft snow or a sandy beach. What can it achieve in hard snow or a field of clay ?

FUCK ALL !

Only CUNTS push when it is required to PULL

This is why , in the white man’s imagination his STONEHENGE is humanly impossible—aliens must have built it right? First of all the CHOOT does not even know what it is for—he is still speculating

THERE CAN BE NO LIFE WITHOUT WATER .. ANAEROBIC CREATURES CAN SURVIVE WITHOUT OXYGEN.

“ The hydrogen atoms within each water molecule are strongly drawn toward the oxygen atoms in neighboring molecules. In fact, the hydrogen partners are so fickle that a water molecule changes partners ten billion to a hundred billion times a second. Water appears to be H 1.5 O rather than H2O ( hence the fantastic dissolving action )”
